whatever happened to …

Corey Dickerson, on the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 10-day injured list since April 4, remains in limbo with a shoulder problem. A rehab assignment that was to begin on April 26 was called off because the former Meridian Community College star was experiencing discomfort in his right (throwing) shoulder. The latest injury update indicates he has not resumed throwing or hitting. Dickerson, who turns 30 on May 22, played in just four games (2-for-13, one homer) before going on the IL. Dickerson was an All-Star for Tampa Bay in 2017 and won a Gold Glove in left field for the Pirates last season, when he batted .300 with 13 homers and 55 RBIs. (He also won All Mississippi Baseball’s Cool Papa Bell Award as the best Mississippian in the majors in 2018.)
